Foreign Military Intervention: The Dynamics of Protracted Conflict - Paperback

by Ariel Levite (Editor), Bruce Jentleson (Editor), Larry Berman (Editor)

Foreign Military Intervention brings together prominent scholars in an ambitious and innovative comparative study. The six case studies--the United States in Vietnam, the Soviet Union in Afghanistan, Syria in Lebanon, Israel in Lebanon, South Africa and Cuba in Angola, and India in Sri Lanka--constitute a diverse set, involving superpowers and regional powers, democracies and nondemocracies, neighboring states and distant states, and incumbent regimes and insurgent movements.
